Prefixes And Suffixes

Background Information for Learners:

Structural analysis is the process of breaking down words into their basic part to determine the word
meaning. It is a powerful vocabulary tool since knowledge of a few word can give you clues to the meanings of
a large number of words.

1. A prefix is a group of letters (or an affix) that is added before a word to change the meaning. Prefixes
modify the meaning of a word. They can make a word negative, show repetition, indicate position, or
give opinion. Some of the most common prefixes are dis-, in-, and un.

Example: Adding the prefix un- to the word kind makes the word unkind, meaning not kind.

2. A suffix is an affix that is added or attached at the end of a root or base word. Some suffixes added can
change the meaning of words. Others can signal the word’s part of speech or indicate verb tense. Some
common suffixes are –ed, -s/-es, -ing, and –ly.

Examples:
Maria shoveled the soil. (Adding the suffix -ed creates the past tense of the verb shovel.)
Maria is shoveling the soil. (The –ing suffix makes the verb in its present tense.)

3. Root word - the basic meaningful parts of a word.

Activity 1: Search the Word
Direction: Look for the word with suffixes in the puzzle, encircle and write it before the number that defines
its meaning. The word may be written horizontally or vertically. Number one is done for you.
